Your UniCredit Bank

Dear clients,

Recently, we have seen an increase in credit card fraud in the Czech Republic.

We would like to draw your attention to two very common variants of fraudulent e-mails and SMS, with which fraudsters try to obtain payment card numbers and subsequently misuse them for unauthorized transactions.

Blocking your card

The e-mail appears to have been sent from the bank, informs the user that the payment card has been blocked, and prompts you to open the attached link and enter the card number and other information.

The bank never informs clients about the blocking of the card in this way, in addition, the sender's address and the website with the form do not belong to the bank.

Undelivered shipment

The e-mail appears to have been sent by the shipping company and informs the user of a shipment that cannot be delivered due to an unpaid fee. Delivery of the shipment is conditioned by immediate payment of this fee. The e-mail includes a link to a fake payment gateway.

None of the forwarding companies  (WebSupport, Slovenská pošta, DHL...) sends such a request for additional payment of the fee, in addition, the address of the sender of the e-mail does not belong to the given company.

We strongly recommend that you do not respond to similar e-mails or SMS messages, do not open links in them and do not enter any data. If you are unsure of the authenticity of a similar message, you can verify it on the Infoline +421 2 6920 2090, or on the Infoline of a specific forwarding company.

You can find a comprehensive overview of the most common card frauds and other tips on how to avoid them on our website: https://unicreditbank.sk/bezpecnost

Dear Clients,

We strongly warn against a new type of fraudulent activity targeting Apple Pay users.

A fraudster on Facebook contacts a user (the fraudster often pretends, using a fake profile, to be one of the user’s friends) asking for transfer of a small amount of money via a special payment gateway where payment card information and a one-time SMS confirmation code are required. This payment gateway is fake and by filling in the information, the user will allow the fraudster to misuse the card. The fraudster then adds the card to the Apple Pay application to get the user's money.

Please comply with the following principles of safe behaviour on the Internet:

• Always ignore requests for sending money via social networks from unknown users.
• As regards requests for money from friends on social networks, always check with the respective friend, ideally over the phone or in person.
• Never enter any payment card information on non-secure websites.
• Always read the confirmation SMS.
• Only enter Apple Pay service activation codes into these applications as part of their activation and never forward them to other people.
• If you receive an activation SMS that you did not request, call your bank's infoline immediately.

Dear clients,

in regards to the upcoming holidays, we would like to inform you that all our branches UniCredit Bank will be closed on November 1^st 2019 a November 17^th 2019.

For realizing banking transactions you can use electronic banking services or you can use our call bank's Infoline at 0800 14 00 14.

Starting 14 September 2019, new card payment verification rules laid down in a European Regulation will enter into force in the Czech Republic.

In respect to this, we would like to notify you that there may in some cases be changes in payments using physical payment cards in brick-and-mortar shops.

Clients may be asked to enter their PIN for transactions of less than CZK 500 (for which no PIN currently has to be entered) or their transactions may be rejected without stating the reason for the rejection.

In such cases, payments can be made by inserting the card into the terminal and entering the PIN. This will verify the holder in accordance with the Regulation and the payment will be completed.

Contactless payments can also be made via payment cards downloaded onto a smartphone or other device.

Dear Clients,

We would like to inform you that in compliance with Act No. 492/2009 on Payment System in conjunction with the respective European legislation, we have sent you a Fee Statement in a standardised format (zip) for information purposes. The distribution has been carried out in accordance with the distribution option and method you have chosen. (by mail, electronic mail, or delivery by hand at the bank’s point of sale).

The Fee Statement will be sent to you once a year, together with information for the entire previous calendar year. This is except the Statement sent to you on 3 September 2019, which contains a summary of fees and interest accrued for using your payment account for the period from 5 September 2018 until 31 December 2018.

Should you discover any discrepancies between your regular current account statements and the Fee Statement, do not hesitate to contact the employees of any UniCredit Bank branch or our Customer Centre.

Regards,

UniCredit Bank
